Safe and Effective Removal of Unwanted Ink

Laser tattoo removal is a non-surgical procedure that uses precise laser technology to break down tattoo pigments and fade unwanted tattoos with minimal risk to the surrounding skin. At Yeongjong Central Dermatology Clinic, our experienced dermatologists use state-of-the-art laser systems to safely remove tattoos of various sizes, colors, and depths.

Understanding Laser Tattoo Removal

Tattoo ink particles are embedded deep within the skin. Laser tattoo removal works by emitting short bursts of light energy that break these particles into smaller fragments, which are naturally eliminated by the body’s immune system. It is effective for:

• Professional and amateur tattoos
• Black, blue, red, green, and multicolored inks
• Small cosmetic tattoos (eyebrow or eyeliner tattoos)
• Partial or full tattoo removal requests

Multiple sessions are typically required depending on the tattoo's age, ink density, and color.

Diagnosis at Yeongjong Central

A comprehensive consultation is conducted before starting treatment to determine the best laser protocol and set realistic expectations. This includes:

• Evaluation of ink color, location, and depth
• Skin type and sensitivity assessment
• Review of medical history and previous tattoo modifications
• Custom treatment plan including wavelength selection and session frequency

Topical anesthetic or cooling may be recommended for enhanced comfort.

Treatment Process

1. Skin Preparation and Numbing

• The treatment area is cleansed, and numbing cream may be applied
• Protective eyewear is provided for safety during the procedure

2. Laser Session

• A specialized laser (e.g., Q-switched or pico laser) is used to target the tattoo pigment
• You may feel a snapping or stinging sensation as the ink absorbs the energy

3. Post-Treatment Care

• The area may be covered with a sterile dressing
• Aftercare instructions are provided to prevent scarring and promote healing
